There is a new version of 'unrar' available for all platforms but AMD64.
The source package can be obtained from
http://debian.dev.sourceguru.net/unrar-nonfree
It compile and run smootly on debian-amd64. But how to get it into the
official repository?
My bugreport #335824 was closed because AMD64 "is not an official
port" and the bug is fixed for all other support platforms.
